Looking great Dan. Especially that book at the front 👀 🤝 @claretbluepod.bsky.social
Nowhere near finished to the standard I’m after, but we’re really getting somewhere now with Poddymoor Heath 😍

“How are you composed enough to get those shots when we score?”

I’m usually not!

Part two (in reverse order) because it was that good. Pre-match - a lovely day out in Leipzig. #avfc

Gutted to have my camera taken off me at the turnstiles (I got it back!) so these are just off the phone, but what a day.

It started with taking photos for the club, ended with a win that will live long in the memory. Great to see so many brilliant people old and new in Leipzig.

Funny how things can turn around in 48 hours. Have always thought we’re competing for 5th this season, and we’re in a very strong position going into December #avfc

Apropos of nothing. Oasis disbanded the season before Man City ended a 35-year wait for a major trophy and they reformed earlier this season.

Good lord 😍
Pie review: Steak Pie, Dundee North End. Small clubs often mean good pies. This was a cracker. The meat filling was delicious and melted in the mouth. Pastry a wee bit soft, but overall, it's amongst the best I've had this season.

Aston Villa in the Champions League under the lights against one of the biggest clubs in the world. Still a surreal feeling #avfc

Superb stuff, Chris. One for the Villa fans of a certain age 🙈
This week's free newsletter is about growing up as an Aston Villa supporter straddling modern football's great historic dividing line.

Have a look.

The last time Aston Villa played Juventus at Villa Park was in 1983

Losing 2-1 in the first leg of a quarter final tie against the Italian giants Juventus 🇮🇹
